So much for the Panik experiment I guess.
Has anyone heard from Sabean?
What is he doing all day? smh

DrLefty

Good grief, I can’t believe they actually let Affeldt around scalding hot coffee.

Thanks Alex, good stuff!

I think he was domiciled to the ICED area of that machine :=)

Michael Scott

Panik is having a day off.
Sabean is getting a restraining order- stay away from his office and home.

He and his bride Amanda were seen strolling hand in hand in the Marina with the Bochy’s. You and Ketchup should try the hand-holding stuff some evening in the Stockton area. Then go dancing. He can lead.

I tell ya this sport that we call baseball will expose the sheet out of you, nowhere to run nowhere to hide just you and the pitcher while in the box and on defense your all by yourself just you and a smash comin right at ya.

Tiger Woods misses cut by 4 shots. Its hell getting old, eh?

I can’t believe they let around anything(including family) when not on the mound

CLUTCH,great post you had earlier, little long winded but nonetheless great.

Matthew

I agree…and I responded back their, Coach. Thank you for that item

thefarnz

Time mellows the man and our memories of him. Early in his career Jack was a donkeys butt!

Chris

You apparently did not watch the last Ryder Cup, or Lefty’s scintillating final round 65 in the bitign wind to take The Open. Bubba’s 2nd Masters wasn’t exciting for you ? probably b/c you were busy buying Nike shirts with ‘TW’ to celebrate his last major like 6 years ago.

Chris

Can the team muster 5 hits and/or 2 runs tonight? Doesn’t really matter who Cincinnati’s pitcher is. The team just got shut out by a AAA journeyman that was kicked aroudn the Padres AAA division and then only scored 4 in Timmy’s No No and 2 of those RBIs were by Timmy himself.
Sure would be nice to see any home win over the Reds but how about an 8-2 threashing. Been forever since SF actually won home game let alone 1 convincingly. 2B = HOLE. Not panicing about Panik but he’s been a sub .200 hitting meeehhh like Adrianna before him and HicKKKKs before that. Get a 2B that can play at an average ML level Sabean please – it is really hurtign the team to have 2 auto outs at the bottom of the lineup. Can Bumgarner play 2B and hit on the days he’s not pitching?

Chris

Do the upcoming players get any power in selecting their #s. Seems odd to me a young MLB player earns his way to the majors and Giants and some trainer decides – hey young man you are wearing 47 or 93 or 69 and you’ll like it.

Chris

Of course this eliminates the youngsters that don’t know giants history who egregiously say they want ’24′ or ’3′ or ’25′ or ’11′ or ’44′ or ’4′ or ’27′ – sorry for the late add Marichal!

The Giants were 2 games up on May 9th 23-13 (Beat the Dodgers 3-1) the night BB9 went down with the thumb injury and lost the next day (23-14) to drop to 1.0 “up”.

Agreed. Could not leave out too many details. This site collapses lengthy posts so it’s not as bad as it seems when one first hits “post”.

http://blogs.mercurynews.com/giants/ ClutchUp

Matthew: Saw your genuine post! As always thanks for your humble and genuine feelings on the matter. Of course this was some discourse on my rambling War and Peace, but “Oh Well”.

channelclemente

A single pitcher, in a single game is a poor way to make a point.

http://blogs.mercurynews.com/giants/ ClutchUp

A lot of things seem odd to you Chris….Murph has “done his job” since 1958 and so it is what it is…
Murph gave Crawford 35 because of Chris Speier and Rich Aurila.
Murph plays hunches.

Thx for the perspective Clutch. Who wuz it that hit Bob on his thumb?

Moooooooooose

Absolutely!

Surf Maui

I’m taking responsibility for Giants skid. On the day after they swept the Mets my cell phone case broke and since I was at the game I bought anew SF a Giants phone case. Since that time the Giants have lost 3/4 to the Nats, 3 to the Rockies, 2 to the Chisox1/3 versus the Dbacks, 2/3 to San Diego and one to Cincinnatti. I have this day removed the case and taken a hammer to it. I assume this will lead to a big winning streak– if so you can thank me at the World Series

http://blogs.mercurynews.com/giants/ ClutchUp

Dear Chris: Since Bochy reads this blog after and before each game and he has your photo avatar above his desk in his office and if you wish him to follow some of your directives – you can’t be all over the map during the ENTIRE season. You WROTE this below ONLY 19 days ago on June 8th.

Get a grip – you cannot have it both ways

Chris • 19 days ago
First place in NL West, Dodgers buried deeply! behind Giants in standings, MLB’s best record after 60+ games for first time in 4 decades… I’m loving! the 2014 San Francisco Giants…SF Giants = 2010 Champs, 2012 Champs, 2014? Champs just works! It is an even ‪#‎ed year and the Giants know even numbered year Titles.
Morsecode38 = superb…so is Tim Hudson. Blanco back in the role of backup which is what he’s suitable for. I sure hope Scoots can come back and play well b/c that .190 average of Hicks could be problematic down the stretch and into the playoffs.

Moooooooooose

If I remember right, it was Maholm.

That “puppy” is for SURE howling. -)

Everything with you has gotta be “punking” a guys real name so that you can feel better or tougher. Puke-O for Blanco; Choke-Silla for Casilla, Choke-Feldt for Affeldt. I’d smile if you said that to their faces.

Ahem, Eldrick Tonter Tiger Woods

Bingo – right down the middle said Uecker

http://blogs.mercurynews.com/giants/ ClutchUp

Because of BB9′s beauiful tan, sunglasses are suggested. This day BB9 was speaking Bumgarner-ese with a little bit of Huddy.

The team has won 4!!!! Times in the past 3 weeks. Tell me why myself pacman68 and mlbsf the most sane and wise realists on this board cannot roundly criticize the glaring weaknesses on this team which are gnat pain cain hicKKKKs 2b in general the lack of a bona fide good cfer after pagan and noo Greg white is simply a fill in decent 5th of period. And the starting picking bum garner had been superb Hudson good the other 2 mediocre and pain cain never has 20 million bought so little in return. I pointed out these weaknesses in spring training and now you see the losses pile up

Chris

Nah what’s funny is my nickname for HicKKKKs. If I could find a way to insert some backwards Ks I would.

channelclemente

It’s been a while since something as dramatic, even riveting, as that 2008-9 (?) US Open with Rocco Mediate v Woods, with Woods playing on a broken leg to win in a playoff.

Chris

I bet some Giants have read my comments and laughed. Like the Maha Rushie of radio I aim to entertain with my critiques in a humorous direct way.

South City Jim

Maholm no more wanted to hit Belt than Hudson wanted to decapitate Allen Craig. That said, Wainwright is the type that will exact revenge. Hang loose on his start next week.

I thought I was doing the right thing. however I did not change my seat during Timmy’s no no

MLBSF

They do.
Every time I blast someone they respond….just the way every player that gets put on Ketchup’s garbage lists responds.

http://blogs.mercurynews.com/giants/ ClutchUp

Any guesses?

thefarnz

Indonesia

MLBSF

Dirty old creepy man
smh

DrLefty

Me either. I started watching the game in my home office because I wanted to do some cleaning and straightening in there. I finished working but decided I didn’t dare move. I watched the whole game in my computer chair instead of on my couch on my nice plasma TV!

channelclemente

Did you post a pic here of the last out and Romo’s celebration?

MLBSF

I was thinking after the A’s kicked the Giants butts all over the place in spring training that I was overreacting with my March prediction that the A’s were going to complete a 4-game sweep of the Giants during the regular season.

Part of me was like man, should I tone it down to a more realistic prediction of the A’s taking 3-of-4?

But now I only wish I could get to Las Vegas to put some money down. I don’t think there’s any question Oakland is going to win all four games the week after next. It will turn out to be one of my best predictions this year. Mark it down.

Surf Maui

I was sitting at a bar and wound up having to buy a round for everyone there– money well spent

The Bay Bridge series is now the term relating to regular season games dearie. Fact is. you are wrong and Fortress is wrong. Fess up and move along.

MLBSF

nice try.
the A’s kicked our a sses during the preseason bay bridge series for years and years. look it up

Michael Scott

And ST games don’t count, numbnutz

MLBSF

Yes they do

Michael Scott

Since when? Just stop, that’s as dumb as anything you’ve said and there’s plenty of competition.

Moooooooooose

In all seriousness, Had they followed your suggestions, do you think the Giants should have won the World Series in 2011 and 2013?

Michael Scott

Gee, I plum forgot. What team won the Spring Training World Series last year?

Brownie

Preseason? Dude, you just like to type

Surf Maui

Thanks for asking. Back is doing OK. Dr. said there is good bone growth but I’m three months away from solid fusion. I’m in upstate New York till my back heals–except for travelling to see the Giants. So hopefully I’ll be ready to start surfing again after the Giants win the 2014 World Series.

Surf Maui

The way I look at it I owe him for two World Series and many many thrills. He will always be a favorite

MLBSF

youre almost as annoying as clutchup

thefarnz

When you put up that post, pic wasn’t there, and I had no idea to what I was guessing, let alone a golf swing. So all in all, I think I had a good guess.

Fortress Keeper

I’ll amend it to say every time I’ve seen the two teams play, and that includes 89 World Series

NoShame09

I actually believe the rule was “hit two homers and start the next day”. Even though belt was robbed of that amendment 3 years ago against the cardinals I believe. But I digress. These guys are just not…well whatever, it doesn’t matter.
